I see your wishes on the wall
And that's all right with me
I see you run to make a call
Hoping that there's someone freeYour life and my life they don't touch at all
That's no way to be
We've never seemed so farWhat's real? What is true?
I ain't turning my back on you
Where're you goin'? Where've you been?
Making wishes, watching dreamsIt might be simple, it might be true
I might be overwhelmed by you
You might be empty
The way your eyes just look right throughIt's such a mess now anyway
Wish fulfillment everyday
I don't believe you
Now I can't hear a word you sayI see you shaking in the light
Reading the headline news
The others they're not quite so bright
We want them to choose youI could almost see your face tonight
Singing simple rhythm n' blues
You'll always be a starShake it baby come on scream
Just see your face in a magazine
Don't doubt it leaves Chris sore
I can't stand it anymoreIt's my favorite shot of you
You look so pretty your eyes were true
I'm still on your side
In spite of everything you doWe're only blood on blood on life
You paint me pictures every night
Come wish beside me
Don't you know you know what's right?
